TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.0 (TSS 2.0) is a set of active safety technologies designed
to help mitigate or prevent collisions across a wide range of traffic situ\
ations, in
certain conditions. TSS 2.0 is designed to help support the driver’s awareness,
decision making and vehicle operation contributing to a safe driving experience.\
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for operation, setting adjustments, limitations and
more details to understand these functions and complete safety precautions. For

Quick overview-Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.0
Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist (LDA w/SA)
LDA w/SA is designed to provide notification when the system detects
an unintended lane departure.
The Steering Assist function is designed to provide small corrective
steering inputs to the steering wheel for a short period of time to help
keep the vehicle in its lane.
The Sway Warning function is designed to detect vehicle swaying
(based on the vehicle location and steering wheel operation) and alert
the driver with an audio and visual alert, urging them to take a break.
Automatic High Beams (AHB)
AHB is designed to detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and
the tail lights of preceding vehicles and switch between high beams
and low beams as appropriate.
Road Sign Assist (RSA)
RSA is designed to recognize specific road signs using the forward-
facing camera to provide information to the driver via the display.
Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD)
PCS w/PD is designed to provide alert, mitigation, and/or avoidance
support in certain conditions, when the system detects a potential
collision with a preceding vehicle is likely to occur.
The advanced millimeter-wave radar sensor system is designed to
work with the forward-facing camera to help recognize a preceding
pedestrian or bicyclist, and provide an alert, mitigation and/or
avoidance support in certain conditions.
Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC)* or
Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC)**
DRCC is designed to help maintain a pre-set distance to a preceding
vehicle when the preceding vehicle is traveling at a lower speed.
Full-Speed Range DRCC is the same as regular DRCC except the
available speed range is extended down to 0 MPH.
Lane Tracing Assist (LTA)**
LTA contains all the features of LDA described above and additionally
is designed to help keep the vehicle in the center of a lane by assisting
the driver in steering control when using Full-Speed Range DRCC**.
* Available only on vehicles with manual transmissions
** Available only on vehicles with continuously variable transmissions

SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
Grille-mounted radar Forward-facing camera
Sensors
TSS 2.0 combines a forward-facing camera mounted in front of the inside rea\
r view
mirror and a grille-mounted radar mounted in the front grille. These sensors s\
upport the
driver assist systems.
The Pre-Collision System uses a grille-mounted radar and forward-facing cam\
era to
help detect a vehicle or pedestrian or bicyclist in front of your vehicle.
As there is a limit to the degree of recognition accuracy and control perf\
ormance
that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. This system\
will not
prevent collisions or lessen collision damage or injury in every situation. Do \
not use
PCS instead of normal braking operations under any circumstances. Do not at\
tempt to
test the operation of the Pre-Collision System yourself, as the system may n\
ot operate
or engage, possibly leading to an accident. In some situations, such as wh\
en driving
in inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or a sandstorm or while\
driving
on a curve and for a few seconds after driving on a curve, a vehicle or pe\
destrian or
bicyclist may not be detected by the grille-mounted radar and forward-facing came\
ra,
preventing the system from operating or engaging properly.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for a list of additional situations in \
which the
system may not operate properly.
Pre-Collision Warning
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision is hi\
gh, a buzzer
will sound and a warning message will be displayed on the Multi-Information \
Display
(MID) to urge the driver to take evasive action.
Pre-Collision Brake Assist
If the driver notices the hazard and brakes, the system may provide additi\
onal braking
force using Brake Assist. This system may prime the brakes and may apply grea\
ter
braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is depressed.
